A York man was Tasered and arrested Thursday night after he allegedly fought with police officers as they attempted to apprehend him, according to court documents.

West York Police first came into contact with Anthoney Stonesifer when they observed him standing in the middle of the street yelling profanities about police.

“Stonesifer stated many times, in many different fashions, that I better not Tase him and that I do not want to fight with him,” said Officer Victoria Walton of the West York Police Department.

Stonesifer, 21, of the 1800 block of Andrews Street, was charged with aggravated assault, resisting arrest, and public drunkenness in connection with the incident.

Additional officers arrived on the scene and attempted to detain Stonesifer, but he ignored several requests to turn around and place his hands behind his back as they tried to arrest him for public drunkenness, according to court documents.

Police told Stonesifer that he would be pepper sprayed if he continued to walk away, but that did not seem to phase him, according to court documents.
